Aunt Lily was one of the most spectacularly charismatic people that I have ever had the extreme pleasure to be around. Her warmth, love and kindness were ever present. My father, John Meoli always said Lily was a loveable ball of energy. Steve Meoli

Tom & Joanne, Lombardi's, Meoli's, Wiese's and a wold full of Aunt Lilly and Uncle Victor's friends..
I spent some of the best and most memorable times with the Bellucci family. Aunt Liily and Uncle Victor left me with wondeful memories. Many of my best chilhood experiences were in Westborough with my Aunt Lilly, Uncle Victor and Joanne. They were the first to sit my very little butt in a Piper Cub for my first lightplane ride, my sometime caretakers and buddys later on, and my saviors in hard parts of my lost years. I will miss her.
I'm sorry I couldnt write this sooner...sometimes mountains dont have technologhy.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love, Dana

Bless you....Love, Rose and Paul Bordine

Dearest Cus' Joanne, Tom and Bellucci-Lombardi-Wiese-Meoli family,

Please accept our heartfelt sympathies for the loss of Lily and your sorrow at this difficult time.
Lily was one of the most lively, funny, energy-filled, loving, warm, hysterical, and charasmatic ladies that I have ever met. From my earliest memories as a child I can remember all these things about her and felt instantly attracted to her beaming personality. I was particulary taken by her love of singing old Italian Songs that many have forgotten. I always remember having an exciting and fun time when Aunt Lily was around. I feel so grateful to have known her and had her experience part of my life for the better.
I know this is a sad and difficult time to lose such a person in your life and I pass on to you what someone did for me during a difficult death in our family. That person send me " The Foot Prints In The Sand" and how God carried the person through such overwhelming difficult times and therefore only left one set of footprints in the sand. I know that I didn't make it through my difficult times myself and through the pain, numbness and feelings that I could not go on, he carried me through those tough times and I pray he carries you through yours with the comfort / support he gave me.

Much Love,

Steve Meoli and Kevin Nicastro
